Oxford Arms

The Oxford Arms is a public house dating from the earlier 19th century, with alterations, located on Fore Street. It is included on the list for its group value and the significance of its rear premises.

The front of the building is two storeys high and has two windows. It is topped by a Welsh slate roof with a red brick gable stack. The front elevation is rendered and features false half-timbering to the first floor, along with an eaves cornice. The first floor is jettied, with a wooden fascia. A plinth runs along the base. The first floor contains architraved sash windows with glazing bars; the ground floor window is five-light with a transom and mullions. A recessed doorway is topped by a fanlight. A former doorway on the return has been altered.

The rear premises, originally a separate house, dates from the later 18th century. This section is two storeys high with five windows (some modern) and a Welsh slate roof with a boxed-out eaves cornice. Construction is of rendered Devonian limestone rubble. The first floor has three architraved sash windows with glazing bars. A doorway has a plain, square-cut surround, leading to a raised and fielded panel door.
